Differentiating Surgeon Expertise Solely by Eye Movement Features
share
Developments in computer science in recent years are moving into hospitals. Surgeons are faced with ever new technical challenges. Visual perception plays a key role in most of these. Diagnostic and training models are needed to optimize the training of young surgeons. In this study, we present a model for classifying experts, 4th-year residents and 3rd-year residents, using only eye movements. We show a model that uses a minimal set of features and still achieve a robust accuracy of 76.46 class. Likewise, in this study, we address the evolutionary steps of visual perception between three expertise classes, forming a first step towards a diagnostic model for expertise.
